These falls are much bigger than Niagara Falls and are ranked among world’s top 3 water falls. The river feeds thousands of acres of land for cultivation.
There is a story behind the formation of falls that there was a god ruling the world in a serpent shape and he fell in love with a tribal girl called Naipi. Her father promised the god to give her but she fell in love with another tribal named Taroba and he stole the Naipi and escaped down the Iguazu river, the god felt angry and slashed the water with his serpent body and the river was divided which became falls and the lovers were deluged with water.
Well that was a sad ending to those lovers and what ever the story might be when we see the present world history, the Europeans were the first to discover these falls and was a Spanish named (Conquistador Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca) in Spanish language visited in 1541. The Argentine side of the falls was named after him. The heights of the falls were ranging between (210ft-269ft).

The falls can be reached from both places Foz do Iguacu in the Brazilian state of Parana and Puerto Iguazu in the Argentine Province of Misiones. There are Iguazu National Parks on both Brazilian and argentine sides which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

As this is a tourist attraction many tourists visit and enjoy the adventure sports like boating and rock climbing too which surely create an amazing experience.
